Member since date changed

Hello.

I've used a very unique username for sometime now (Not my Steam forums name), it dates back to my Diablo II days (Circa 2001). I recently attempted to make another Steam account, using that username, however it was taken. I always knew that I had an older Steam account, but never went back to it, because there were no games on it.

After 10-15 minutes of trying to remember passwords, I finally logged in. I was pretty pumped to see that my member since date was Sept 12th, 2003. I had an eight year badge and was pretty excited. I also checked Steamrep.com and noticed I had a five digit Steam ID. I took a screenshot, for Reddit and to send to a friend. I had no money in my account at the time, so I had to wait before I could add any friend. Basically for e-peen.

I went downstairs to eat dinner. Came back up, noticed Steam needed updating. Updated Steam, and boom. Member since date was changed to the current date (Sept 2nd, 2012) and my badge was gone. My Steam ID was also an eight digit ID. It was pretty depressing, but not the end of the world.

I contacted Steam support, and was told they couldn't help me. They said the account was created Sept 2nd, 2012 and told me that they could no longer talk about the issue. That was it.

This isn't the end of the world. I just want to know if anyone has ever had this problem, was it fixed? Or did you get the same response as I did? Should I contact support again maybe?

(This topic was moved, I don't know where to though. :shrugs:

It sounds like you logged into a different account.

You can click on your user name at the top and find your threads.

And it's only a few threads down from this one.
